Tired As Usual

Guess what?! I''m tired! Nothing's new there... It's the third week of school, and the first Monday of the school year. And I don't feel like going to school, as usual... I go through these phases of "I don't really care", "I don't want to go to school", etc. It's sometimes annoying, but it's me... Over the weekend, I went to New England Institute of Art, down in Boston, Mass. Even though the tour was short, I liked the school. If I'm going there, my dad says that I'm going to have to get a dorm. Which I actually don't really mind, because there are these Independent Apartments, where you can get a apartment with a room mate or by your self, and the school will give you $120 card to Shaws or some food shopping place. So I get to live by myself and fend for myself if I were to go to school. I like to be anti-social sometimes.
On Sunday, my friend and I, (and my dad as a GPS) went to a POWWOW at Parker's Maple Barn. It was a small thing, they had nice shops too. I bought a hat that says Native Pride on it. My friend bought a ring, and a bone necklace. Yes, real bones. We also saw some fur...which I think almost made me want to go become a vegitarian. I also saw a rattle, that was made out of a turtle shell and a deer hoof... But other than that it was okay. I say okay, because it wasn't exactly what I was expecting... Most of the "Native Americans" were white... not to be racist or anything...its just that most of them didn't look like Native Americans. And their tribal dances were sort of slow... but I loved the music, which was just drums and them singing.
And now it's back to school... At least I finished my yucky homework early...

Birthdays & Jobs

Blegh. I started school last Wednesday... Not sure if I already mentioned that... I don't feel like going back to look at my previous posts hahaha. And I have a four day weekend. And as of right now. I'm on my last day of my four day weekend. And now I have to suffer four days of school before the weekend. Two days in school, and I'm already having senior-it-us. or whatever. So today I spend it on making three birthday cards and one present, and watching Planet Earth during this. My back hurts... I was sitting on my couch while creating cards, and the couch was in a slanted position, since it's usually much more comfitable. But apparently too long in the position, my back hurts.
Also I'm trying to find a job. I called Michael's and PETCO on Thursday. Michael's hiring manager wasn't in till the following day. PETCO said that they would be doing interviews this week. Let's hope that they call me. Because I seriously need a job. This upcoming weekend, I'm busy. Saturday I'm going to Boston, for a college open house, and after that I'm going to a birthday party. And the next day, I'm going to a POW WOW. For those who don't know what a POW WOW is. It's a festival for Native Americans. Anyone can go, and see them. And since I'm a Native American fanatic, I'm going. At least I'm going to a POW WOW before I die. Now I need to go to Ireland....
